For one example, Electrify America is $4/month + $0.36/kWh. (You can pay the $4 and immediately cancel, before a road trip.) Assuming 4 miles/kWh, that's $36 to drive 400 miles. Charging at home cuts the cost roughly in

DHCP and ARP use 32-bit addresses, so those protocols had to change regardless. I would challenge you to find someone who knows the difference between Ethernet broadcast and multicast without looking up the answer. They are very similar

Consider that NAT64 is able to translate between IPv4 and IPv6 at the packet level. If the protocols were as different as you suggest, this wouldn't be possible.

It probably would've been better for routers to set a "truncated" bit and chop off the rest of the packet. UDP-based applications would have to do MTU discovery, but that's much easier when you're receiving truncate

A typical car needs 20 kW to maintain highway speed, so 200 kW charging gives you perpetual motion using 10% of the road length. Similarly, that's 400kW for 5% of the road, or 2MW for 1% of the road.

12-24 hours of molten salt storage should be enough to generate power all day, and sell it at times when electricity is most expensive. There's not much point storing for multiple days, when the reactor itself behaves like long-durati

Any of the high-temperature reactor designs (sodium, molten salt, TRISO, etc.) can be combined with thermal energy storage. Light water reactors only get up to 300°C, which is barely hot enough to spin a turbine. At >600°C, you can heat

Powering the US without emitting CO2 generally requires either (1) lots of new transmission lines to share wind/solar between regions, or (2) lots of nuclear so we don't have to. > Direct current (DC) is the worst kind of power

Heat storage is technically possible at any temperature, but it's much more cost effective at 600°C than 300°C.

Light water reactors (like the AP300) don't get hot enough for molten salt storage. That requires one of the high temperature Gen IV reactors.

If you're using Chrome, right-click the URL bar and check "Always show full URLs", so you can see the https:// prefix like it's 1999. This also fixes a variety of UX problems with editing URLs. By the way, do
